I’m proud of you man, Boyan @radzcorpuz for a Sub 5:30 finish of your first Marathon. Sure this ain’t the last. Yeah? I introduced you to the TBR, and you signed up for it. I’m just glad to have paced you thru the finish line, I suddenly remember our Takbo.ph finish. 🤙
You indeed finished the race strong and a solid heart. Rest and recover well. See you in Ultra races. 😂

Revisiting an old favorite because it’s nearly 1am, the world is a nightmare, and I can’t sleep. .

There ought to be a word for starting a book after midnight, akin to #bootycall .

Yeah, mostly I just wanted my Vonnegut #bookstagram showing up on the bootycall hashtag. 🤷‍♀️

I’ve been wanting to read this book for a long time. Gotta say, I didn’t love it. I actually didn’t even like that much. My Name is Lucy Barton by Elizabeth Strout is about Lucy and her difficult childhood that leads her to flee her family home, move to NYC and become a writer after years of books providing her with comfort from the surrounding dysfunction. As an adult, Lucy is hospitalized and during her stay her mother comes to visit and the two reconnect after years of not speaking. I liked the premise but I never really bought into the characters. They just didn’t feel real. Perhaps I had unrealistic expectations following the hype the book received when first published. This is the first book by Elizabeth Strout that I’ve read and I’m absolutely willing to try more. Hopefully they capture me more 🤞#bookstagram#overthehype#elizabethstrout#mynameislucybarton#tbr#readers#readersofinstagram

If Fifty is the new Thirty, then Nina Sullivan is today’s pin-up girl. Blessed with good genes, she’s keeping the crow’s feet and laugh lines at bay, maximizing her youthful appearance. But, factor in her lackluster sex life and she’s pushing a hundred.
In the early years of their marriage, Nina and Sully consumed each other with raw, carnal passion. And then one by one, year by year, their children snuffed out the burning flames.

If it wasn’t my father who hired Johnathan, then who? “Do you believe me?” he asks. “I do,” I honestly tell him. “Will you tell me what happen between you and him?” “No.” “Why?” “Because it’s none of your business. And it doesn’t matter anyway we’re not together. We never really were. We went out on a few dates, that’s all.” “Angel,” he scratches his forehead. “The man you were dating is not just ‘some man’ he has connections all across the world.” Well, if that information didn’t just knock me sideways. Johnathan is... “Listen to me, honey,” he says, standing and grasping my elbows in his caring hands. “I need you to stay away from him.” I’m speechless. Honestly, I am. Does this mean Johnathan is a bad guy or a good guy? “Which side is he on, the law side or-”

|@crownpublishing #partner | I've got my review for this one up on my blog! I know there were a lot of mixed reviews for it and while I saw some problems with the protagonist, I did still really enjoy the story. I think Weir would have suffered no matter what trying to write a follow-up to the endlessly charming Mark Watney but his execution of a female protagonist was a bit shaky. What did you think? Let me know your thoughts in the comments! ▪▪▪▪▪
Tonight is a MUCH needed date night with my husband to include dinner at a new spot known for its macaroni and cheese🧀. Then we're going to see The Darkest Hour which is a nice middle ground for my husband's love of war movies and my love of period dramas 👌. What are your Saturday plans?
